More pictures. Daydream is a lot darker than I thought but it is beautiful. Bottom picture left to right Mississippi mermaid, day dream and couer battant. The teuture of the eyeshadow is amazing. It feels like a cream it is so soft.

Top picture has goodbye Emmanuelle on top and full frontal below

Cool! You got the same things I ordered. I haven't got them yet, but they're on their way.
Mississippi Mermaid is much more beautiful than I thought. The texture is gorgeous based on your swatch!
I want to get more eyeshadows, but I won't use frequently if I get Rage.(Of course, but It's really beautiful.lol)
And Wishful Thinking, Bad Behavior and Cambodia aren't the colors I usually use cuz they're not good on me.

The texture is unbelievable. I'm a complete nars addict - the majority if my stash is nars but they outdid themselves with this new formula

If the texture is much nicer than some of the Nars eyeshadows like Ashes to ashes/Nepal/Cairo (velvety texture), it's def. outstanding!!!
How's the lipsticks, btw? Are they long-lasting compared to their normal sheer lipsticks?

They're gorgeous too. Really pigmented that picture is one swipe. Also took a bit of scrubbing to get them off my hand. I haven't worn them yet but I'll try them out over the weekend and report

I went to a makeup show and Uzo was there!
She used Rage (all over the eyelid)+Cambodia (crease) with Future Red l/s (of course, on the lips.lol) and Wishful thinking (all over the eyelid)+Rage (crease) with Short Circuit (mixed with Red Square). She used Day Dream+Exhibit A and Coeur Battant+Exhibit A on the cheeks.
They look really gorgeous!

So The one night stand brush palette is only available in the US??
It should be available on the nars website as well. The sephora exclusives usually are - just a while after sephora gets it. I would think around the first week in November for the UK website. Fingers crossed

I feel the same, & recently, they have also been putting Deep Throat into everything. I love Deep Throat and all, but I have like.. three in different palettes now. I still purchased this anyway since each full-sized blush is 0.16 and retails for $29, while each blush in here is 0.14. For the three exclusive colors to the palette alone, it's pretty worth it even though half are repeats.

Edit: or I actually hope it's 0.14 since I've seen it elsewhere that it should be & their previous cheek palettes in this format were all 0.14. Sephora's site lists them as 0.014, which is incredibly tiny, but Sephora messes up on the size of the items a lot!

i really can't justify it for just half of the palette . what if i do not like those other three shades?

you can swap it or sell it in the clearance bin! or you can always return it if you end up not liking the palette as a whole. I'd rather have buyers remorse than skippers remorse, but that's just me :)

I'm not so sure sure about this. It might be the case in the US. But I remember the Danmari and Joie de Vivre never showed up on the Nars website, and instead were respectively Sephora and Le Bon Marché exclusive (in France). And they were available in stores too, so we shall see. :)

It is 6 x 0.14, they messed up. The palette is the same size as the previous ones, so it cannot possibly contain only a tenth of what the previous ones contained.

I always have to force myself to look at colors one by one bc when I see collections I always want them all! Lol they look so good together (like they're supposed to) but one by one I'm like ok are you really going to wear this or do you want it because it looks cool next to that fuschia? Lol
Douglas Copeland talks about this in one of his novels (prob. Generation X). One of his characters says that shirts at the Gap look so appealing when they're in a stack of different colours, but if you buy one and take it home, it's just like any other shirt!

I know this is a controversial collection, but do these blush palettes typically sell fast or do I have time to go back and forth in my head? Lol I'm trying to justify my current makeup spending habits but idk :/ help lol
